Raza Saeed, CEO PakWheels said,

We are delighted to join the forces with AutoGenie. We are aiming to provide to Pakistani auto consumers all the services they would need, from searching for a car, to buying it and then taking care of it. Our objective is to be a one stop shop for the local car buyers.

PakWheels and AutoGenie are hoping to create a synergy that can fully cater the Pakistani auto consumer, from searching for a suitable car, then buying a certified vehicle, to getting the best motor insurance deal for it and then taking care of its scheduled maintenance.

CEO of AutoGenie, Hamza Abbas talked to our team regarding his vision and how it is going to help the Pakistani auto consumers,

With the changing trend of buying and selling things online, general public has become adaptive to such services. As a result of this partnership one can enjoy the convenience of buying his car, maintaining it while he keeps it and selling it when he intends to upgrade, all this through online assistance. On-demand service industry is flourishing just like e-commerce.

He further added,

…auto-maintenance industry is about to get clean and interesting.

The investment is going to help the expansion of the infrastructure of AutoGenie in Lahore and later expand AutoGenie services to other cities, and Karachi is on the top of the list. AutoGenie has already serviced more than 1500 vehicle since its start in Lahore.
